Cyril Bassett VC Speech Winner

The entire Kunnethedam clan traveled to Alexandra to support Jibi (Yr12) at the RSA Cyril Bassett VC Speech Competition for the Otago Southland area. In his speech he spoke about how ANZAC was significant to all New Zealander's and about the possible confusion as to what it meant to be a soldier due to the influence of today's modern world. Jibi will travel to Wellington to compete in the National Competition at the beginning of April where he will vie to win an opportunity to travel to Turkey to take part in the 97th commemoration of the ANZAC landings at Gallipoli and recite the RSA's Ode to the Fallen in front of the expected 20,000 people crowd.
